🧵 Low number of steps performed in memory.

Neuroscience thread.
I'm technically relatively high IQ (for all that's worth, not much I assume) and can problem solve quickly, but as soon as there are compound steps - not just multiple banal steps, but rather things involving combination of multiple strategies, my brain shuts down.
It's honestly worrying. For example in competitive math sometimes you have to assume one strategy is right, and then keep going along that route and take the next strategy. Or in games like Go or Shogi you have to read 10 moves ahead. My brain just freezes on the second move ahead.
Is this a form of retardation? My short-term and long-term memory both suck, I swear I might be disabled. Lot of good that "IQ" is...

Quick problem-solving and high performance in games is usually just rote memorization or applying some quick rule to a situation that you have practiced or seen multiple times.
It's only a matter of getting enough practice.

I do like attention. for sure. But I'm genuinely interested in the topic and kind of concerned about it as well.
